European Sleeper's Berlin–Paris service launched in March 2026, running three nights a week via Brussels and Liège. There is no dining car, so bring a picnic. Fares are fully dynamic and a single sleeper can spike on peak dates, so a European Sleeper Pass can cap the cost. Here is what each berth costs.

How to pay less
Book the moment tickets open (roughly six months ahead on European Sleeper); travel mid-week rather than Friday or Sunday; take a couchette rather than a sleeper if you don't need a private cabin; and, if you're stringing several night trains together, price up an Interrail Global Pass (remember seat and couchette reservations are extra). Our guide to booking sleeper trains cheaper has every legitimate trick.
Questions, answered
How much is the night train from Berlin to Paris?
Fares start from around €49 for a reclining seat, with a private cabin from about €99. Prices are demand-priced on the European Sleeper and rise as the train fills, so book early for the lowest fare.
Does the Berlin to Paris sleeper run every night?
It runs 3 nights a week (dep Berlin Mon, Wed, Fri). Departures are limited, and the cheapest couchettes and cabins are released roughly six months ahead and sell first — especially in summer.
What time does it leave and arrive?
It departs Berlin Hauptbahnhof at approximately ~18:31 and arrives Paris Gare du Nord at about ~10:00 the next morning — a journey of around ~15h 29m.
What is the difference between a couchette and a sleeper?
A couchette is a shared compartment with simple bunks (you share with other passengers unless you book the whole compartment). A sleeper is a proper private cabin with made-up beds and a washbasin, and deluxe versions add an en-suite shower.
Can I get breakfast?
Yes — a light breakfast is included in couchette and sleeper fares on the European Sleeper, brought to your compartment before arrival. Seats do not include breakfast.
